1. I Am Embarrassed in Front of Hundreds of Girls Who All Hate My Guts

Ears ringing, head aching, girlish screams reverberating through your skull... You can only be one place in the world. A One Direction concert. Well, I wasn't really at the concert, I was in the wings waiting for my boyfriend, Niall Horan, to get offstage.

WHAT! GASP! SWOON! Yeah, that's right. I'm the lucky girl Niall Horan is dating. But don't go spreading that around. We want to keep it private,okay? Anyways, there I was, chatting with the stage manager. Normally, they wouldn't allow a girlfriend backstage, but for me and Niall they make exceptions. We see each other so little. He lives in Ireland, and I live in America, so visits are few and far between. We'd been dating for a month, and had seen each other only twice in that space of time.

Which was why I was so excited to see him tonight. The boys had a concert in New Jersey that night, so I decided to drive over from Pennsylvania and surprise Niall. I'd told Harry, Liam, Louis and Zayn, so they were in on it too. The boys finished singing " One Thing" and the intermission was called. They walked offstage and were handed bottles of water from the stage hands. I watched Niall as he took a drink, wondering when he was going to realize that I was there.

And realize he did. As Niall caught sight of me, he choked on the mouthful water he just drank. " C-Ceili!" he sputtered, coughing and dropping the water bottle to the ground. " It's really her, mate." Harry said with a grin.Niall whooped and vaulted toward me. However, as he did this, he slipped on the water on the floor and crashed to the ground. ( This made my heart almost stop and the other guys to burst out laughing)" Ow." he groaned. " Niall!" I squealed, dropping to his side. " Are you okay?" " Yes, now that I see your lovely face." Niall said, smiling." Now, while we're down here, you might as well give me a kiss." " You cheeky thing, you." I said, kissing him. Niall smiled as we kissed and then just stared up at me." I can't believe you're here!" he said. "You better believe it. Because here I am." Niall seemed perfectly happy to just lay there and look at me, but I said," Niall, you might want to get up now." He nodded and then stood up, lifting me up too. I gently wiped away a smudge of lipstick from the corner of his mouth, and he kissed my forehead" Niall?" Zayn said." Two minutes until we're back on." Niall frowned and threw an arm around me." If only you could come onstage."Then he grinned mischievously." Maybe you could? Ceili, how do you feel about making a little "announcement" to our friends from New Jersey?"I blinked at him worriedly. " Are you sure? I mean- do you want to?"" Yes. I do! I actually think its amazing we keep it a secret for this long, but I'm tired of keeping it secret. Please, can we?"His gorgeous baby blues were pleading with me. I gently smoothed back his hair and then nodded. " Okay. You can tell them." ?"

But just telling them wasn't what Niall had in mind. He ran out on stage and grabbed the microphone. " Okay guys, there's someone I want you all to meet. Ceili, could you come out here, please?"He looked into the wings and I shook my head vehemently, waving my arms in an attempt to stop him. He laughed and then said," Boys, I think she needs some assistance." Liam and Harry walked over to me and took both my hands, towing me behind them. I tried my upmost to slow them down, but eventually their superior strength won out. They hauled me over to Niall and he pulled me close to him. " Guys, this here is Ceili." There was a total silence for a few moments. They were clearly wondering what Niall was playing at. Then one girl in the front row called out," Who is she?" " She-" Niall said, taking my hand." Is my girlfriend." Screams. Just screams. If you heard one gigantic, feminine shriek rise up in the air in January, that was it. Then the shout-outs started." No!!!"" We need proof!"" Kiss her Niall!" Niall grinned and turned to me, silently asking. I nodded slightly and he grabbed me by the waist, dipped me, and pressed his lips to mine. He swung me back up and I blushed embarrassedly. Niall put his arm around me and held the mike out to me. " Ceili, do you have anything to add?" " I'm- I'm lucky to have him." The screams quieted and then a massive " Awwwww" rose up. Niall kissed my cheek and whispered. " Not as lucky as I am."

After the concert, Niall protectively shepherded me out of the hall, guarding me from all the stares. We walked to my car and I said, " Well, that was eventful."He grinned and then said," Prepare for a media onslaught tomorrow."I sighed and hugged him, breathing in the warm scent of his jacket. " I'm happy that we revealed it though." " I am too. I wanted to let everyone know how I feel about you."" And how do you feel about me?" I whispered, putting my head on his chest. I could hear his heart beating comfortingly under his shirt. As I said this, his heart rate picked up." I-I think I'm-" A car horn beeped and we heard Louis call," Oi, Niall! We've got to go!" Niall looked back at me and smiled. He leaned down and swiftly kissed me. " Good night, Princess." he breathed before jogging away, leaving so many things unsaid.
